Sugar beets, lettuce and citrus grew here, and the town incorporated in 1910. Sahuaro Ranch, one of the area’s original homesteads from the 1880s, is now a city park. Luke Air Force Base opened nearby in 1941, and the postwar years brought steady growth. Today Glendale is home to State Farm Stadium, Westgate and a historic downtown with the Catlin Court bungalow district. Housing market ## Glendale homes, then and now Downtown Glendale and Catlin Court have early 1900s bungalows, many turned into shops. Much of central Glendale is 1950s to 70s ranch homes, and north Glendale and Arrowhead Ranch added newer master-planned homes in the 1980s through 2000s. In older Glendale homes I often find hidden moisture, older plumbing and sewer lines, and termite damage that a quick look would miss. What I look for ## Common home inspection issues in Glendale * **Hidden moisture.** Leaks from upstairs bathrooms and failing roofs often show up first on a [thermal camera](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/thermal-imaging-inspection/). * **Older plumbing and sewer lines.** Galvanized pipes and cast iron or clay sewer lines are common in mid-century homes. * **Roof wear.** Curling underlayment, loose ridge caps and worn flat roofs are common findings. * **Irrigation leaks.** Leaking irrigation lines leave wet soil against foundations. * **Termites.** Termite tubes in closets and garages are common. A [termite inspection](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/termite-inspection/) is included. * **Drainage.** Clogged swales and missing gutters let water pool near the house. **From the inspection blog:** * [Hidden moisture in a 1997 Glendale home](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/glendale-home-hidden-moisture-thermal-imaging/) * [A solid Glendale house with a few surprises](https://propertyinspectionsplus.com/glendale-az-home-inspection-surprises/) After the inspection ## Where to eat, drink and explore in Glendale * **Haus Murphy’s** – A German restaurant in historic downtown Glendale. * **Cerreta Candy Company** – A family-run chocolate maker in Glendale since the 1960s, with factory tours. * **Westgate Entertainment District** – Restaurants and events next to State Farm Stadium. * **Sahuaro Ranch Park** – The historic 1880s homestead with gardens and peacocks. _Hours and menus change, so check before you go._ Find more local events and news on the [City of Glendale](https://www.glendaleaz.gov) website.
